Analysis- Gloria



The band Canterbury is one i have seen many times live as they originally formed in my local area and performed in High Wycombe. Since then they have become big, been offered contracts, been on tour around Europe and have recorded a few videos. This is their newest addition, which i immediately connected with because of its simplicity. The concept of showing them perform in slow-motion is cleaver and done in one continuous shot is unique compared to most music videos. The mise-en-scene is also simple, a corner of a studio with their instruments set up and the band members walking in as the song starts is easily produced yet effective. The editing of black and white i think completes the video and makes is appear more professional as the image is sharp, giving of a very vintage style recording juxtaposing with the modern music.
